Psalm 10:12-18
English Standard Version
Psalm 10:12-18
English Standard Version
12 (A)Arise, O Lord; O God, (B)lift up your hand;
(C)forget not the afflicted.
13 Why does the wicked (D)renounce God
and say in his heart, “You will not (E)call to account”?
14 But you do see, for you (F)note mischief and vexation,
that you may take it into your hands;
to you the helpless (G)commits himself;
you have been (H)the helper of the fatherless.
15 (I)Break the arm of the wicked and evildoer;
(J)call his wickedness to account till you find none.
16 (K)The Lord is king forever and ever;
the (L)nations perish from his land.
17 O Lord, you hear the desire of the afflicted;
you will (M)strengthen their heart; you will incline your ear
18 to (N)do justice to the fatherless and (O)the oppressed,
so that (P)man who is of the earth may strike terror no more.

Psalm 10:12-18
New International Version
12 Arise,(A) Lord! Lift up your hand,(B) O God.
Do not forget the helpless.(C)
13 Why does the wicked man revile God?(D)
Why does he say to himself,
“He won’t call me to account”?(E)
14 But you, God, see the trouble(F) of the afflicted;
you consider their grief and take it in hand.
The victims commit themselves to you;(G)
you are the helper(H) of the fatherless.
15 Break the arm of the wicked man;(I)
call the evildoer to account for his wickedness
that would not otherwise be found out.

King James Version
Psalm 10:12-18
King James Version
12 Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.
13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
14 Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.
15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none.
16 The Lord is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.
17 Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:
18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
